Note: You may need a longer downrod to
maintain proper blade clearance when
installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. The
maximum angle allowable is 18°. If the
canopy touches downrod, remove the
decorative canopy bottom cover and turn the
canopy 180° before attaching the canopy to
the mounting plate.
